Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, the running mate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has cautioned Ghanaians about the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2024 slogan, “It is possible”.
Asserting that the ruling party may not fulfil its promises, she urged voters to scrutinize the NPP’s pledges carefully and consider their ability to deliver on them before making electoral decisions.
“At a time of different haircuts, and at a time old people picketing at the ministry of finance…at that time they also thought that none of this will happen, they didn’t even imagine that it is possible. But that has been possible, so when you hear about it is possible, think about it. It is possible to picket at the Ministry of Finance, it’s possible to have a different style or haircut,” she said.
She referred specifically to the picketing by pensioner bondholders at the Finance Ministry demanding the release of their monies while emphasizing the need to reflect on current realities.
Addressing female media professionals in Accra, Prof. Opoku-Agyemang dismissed criticisms of the NDC’s capability to govern effectively, highlighting their inclusive approach in developing policies that address the concerns of various segments of society, including journalists and women.
“When we say it is a people’s manifesto, we mean it, I keep saying that you can just shut a couple of us in a room for a couple of weeks and we can draft one for you nicely. But for who are you doing the manifesto for? Does it include journalists? Yes, it includes journalists of many areas of focus,” she said.
